Buster Olney made a great point -- and here's something to be happy about: Where does Manny go now? The Yanks are likely done. The Angels said they won't bid for him. The Dodgers haven't seemed eager. He can't go back to the Sox. If I were the Mets I'd make an offer to Manny right now. -- Matt

Now the Sox are really obligated to upgrade at catcher -- it's the only spot where they can make a significant lineup improvement at this point.

The Yankees swooped in on Teixeira on Tuesday when it was believed the Boston Red Sox or the Washington Nationals were the likeliest of his future employer. The Red Sox's offer was believed to be in the range of $170 million, and the Nationals reached out with an offer perhaps greater than that of Boston. Teixeira finished last season with the Los Angeles Angels following a trade from Atlanta. The Angels withdrew from negotiations on Sunday night, in a very public manner, and say they were moving on to other players. Teixeira had made it clear that he wanted to make a decision on where to play next season and beyond by Christmas. -- Check out Geek Haiku: www.geekhaiku.net I twitter daily but I have no followers do I make a sound? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Red Sox Citizens" group.
